I have Just returned from my winter
trip South. After leaving Lake Charles
/ visited Mexico and quite number
of places in Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee
and Kentucky, bat found no place
that pleased me as well. as Lake

arrange to visit it again hope to read
of its prosperity in your paper.
Very truly yours,
j. W. VAN NLIET.
Many of our citizens remembers
Capt. Van Vliet as a pleasant, whole
souled, sociable gentleman. He came
to Lake Charles in the early part of
last February to take in the Agricul-
tural Convention and spend few
months in recreation and examining
into the merits OF the country. Dur
ing his stay here, the Captain made
many friends who were loath to see
him leave us, and will be pleased to
read his kind words about Lake
Charles and vicinity and to know that
holds our section in such high esteem
and will at some future time pay US
another visit.

have been deceived by a few Re-

they will desert the great party of
